User Rating: 9.5 | Quake III Arena PC
By ToughHorn | Review Date:
Quake III Arena is a game that is firmly for competitive play,thus restricting the player in multiplayer but allowing him to choose from 5 difficulty levels on start so he advances in skill the way he wants to.The Game has been entered as one of the main Electronic Sports in the "ESWC".The Single player isnt as long as it should be,there are a lack of maps but then again there are map packs wich fill the gap made by the few verieties of maps,tough CTF maps are different by structure.

The AI:is SMART,depending on the difficulty they even sometimes think faster than you...hah..tough for seasoned players they pose no serious threat (AI calculates direction of movement,re-evaluates targets,etc.)

The Multi-Player:carries a high value to the game and to the players because you have to focus and apply everything youve learned from the single player or from the game as a whole,and survive by pure skill and knowledge since the game has more than several hidden strategies for movement,firing,terrain overtaking,etc.

So for those who are looking for a challange or just want to play something fun and learning the ropes of a really strategic shoot-em-up gory game,thats the game for you...
